MPI Workboat awarded Statoil contracts

MPI Workboats has announced that it has secured two long-term contracts from Statoil for works at the Dudgeon Offshore Windfarm.

The company will deploy two vessels MPI Napoleon and MPI Snowball to provide crew-transfer support. MPI Napoleon has already commenced its 18-month contract earlier this month, and MPI Snowball will start a three-year contact later in 2016.

The Dudgeon Offshore Wind Farm, located some 20 miles off the North Norfolk coast, will be developed and operated by Statoil and should start generating electricity in early 2017.
